Make a trigless lock with Function + Trig, then apply your trig condition as normal.
Not sure a noob like me understands
Oh ok. Can it be done in some other way? Except making a 64/64 pattern.
you can for example do a 64 step pattern, then to extend it even more, if you have an empty trig either side of one of your trigs you would like to changeā¦
make the original trig ācondition 1:2 (or 1:3, 1:4 etc)ā, then copy that trig n paste it to the adjacent free trig space. change the note / chord, change its trig condition to 2:2 etc, and then shift its microtiming over fully so it hits on the other 1:2 trigs place.
the first trig will play the first time, the copied trig will play the 2nd time round. etc.
Ah cool, so i can make the 2/16-trig hit replace the 1/16 with micro timing?
yep, microtiming + trig conditions
Trying to get this to work and I donāt quite get it. I have a kick on the 4ās. I have some bit reduction on the kick on the 13. I want to apply a condition where the kick always sounds, but only sometimes with the bit reduction. Iāve gone in to the trig condition menu and selected 2:3 and the bit reduction occurs once every 3 bars, but the issue is the kick is silent unless itās the 3rd. Unless Iām misunderstanding how this works. I want the kick to play through, but the Bit Red to be random.
Iāll have a go but Iām just learning so take with pinch of snuff. The placement of kick is in PATTERN which has cond trig. Bit reduction is in PARTS which doesnāt have cond trig. Could be wrong, I could be right, to quote cyndi lauper.
You are misunderstanding how it works.
The condition is of the trig, not of the parameter.
TRC is the act of telling the note in the sequencer itself to either trigger or not.
There is a workaround for what you are after.
On the step your wanting ocassional bit reduction have a trig with bit reduction locked, set your condition. On the next sequencer step place a regular trig with no bit reduction lock, microtime it as far back as it will go, and place a not-pre(pre with a line over it) condition on it.
The trig with bit reduction will play according to your condition. The trig with the not-pre condition will play everytime the other one doesnāt. Since they are microtimed so close together it will seem like the same step.
I think you can combine Trc and Lfo on pitch for that purpose.
Thatās not what conditional trigs are for. (I thought we went over this )
How would the DT know what locked parameters youād want to be conditional?
I donāt have a mark 2 but maybe you could midi loop back and set a midi conditional trig that sends CC to bit reduction on the kick track, bit long winded though
Yeah - there are several hacks and tricks that will possibly get the result one is after.
But I just wanted to point out that @Jameshenry has probably not grasped the foundations of conditional trigs yet. Which is not strange at all. The function heās looking for would be awesome.
Why isnāt it released ?
Surely because itās not ready yet.
Patience, dear.
Last time I checked they seemed pretty busy
I am sure that they are
I was asking myself about the āare they nanlow working onā or āis it just teasing or timingā
Thanks anyway to wait with me
Yeah, thatās why I thought everyone was all excited. I have messed around with the conditional trigs. I just figured it was for conditional parameters as well. Maybe in MKIII. Also, I wish there was more vids on this. Maybe there is, but I didnāt come up with much. I read the manual but Iām more of a tactile person. Would be nice to see all the capabilities in a detailed video.
@Jameshenry @CarlMikaelBjork , if only someone around here made well-produced, thoughtful, instructional videos with Elektron gear.
Well, most of the videos I see are on the MK1, not the two. I know a lot of it is the same, but as a noob, with ZERO elektron experience, it would be nice to see some videos on the MKII specifically. Iām watching the ASK video series on it. I know Cuckoo has videos, but I prefer a different approach than his.
Iāve watches some of Carls videos. Still trying to figure out his polyrhythm video, but thatās for smart people. Iām a dumb as a door nail. What I mean is a well organized series on the MKII. Iām a noob, I like stuff in order of complexity. With youtube, itās a crapshoot what you are going to get.
